Can you imagine him practicing set shots?

I imagine he'd have a similar attitude to practicing his set shot kicking as the last superstar FF we had did...

 

[eth-dog]

Thing I liked most about Voss on the weekend was his set shots. Neither of them could be considered easy and he absolutely nailed them.

I think one selection based on neck circumference per year at minimum

Legend has it Malthouse told Judkins he wanted more players with big arses. Bit of an arse man myself if truth be told.

 

[yodellinhank]

It'd getting to the point that we'd start to look at an athletic 7 footer for the cat b rookie list to develop as a future ruck.

How this hasn't happened yet. Think somebody back when told me there's too much money in basketball when you're that height to give some Australian game a go.

He looks like Mitch Marsh ate 3 kilos of cheese and is struggling to back one out

Pat Voss

Key stats: two goals, five disposals, three marks

“It was his first game back from injury. He’s such a good team man and tried to play his role with the other three key position players down there. He took a couple of nice, contested marks, and ended up with a couple of goals. Defensively, he’s one that likes to tackle so it was great to have him around in the forward line.”

Hope he gets a game or two before the end of the season.

I see what you're all doing. It won't work.

He was mine first!

It's even in the sticky post, so you're all good

Already resigned to this becoming one of those clips that slowly drives me insane as the club, year after year, teases giving him midfield time, only to plonk him in the f50 forever.

F50 could do with some grunt.

Given the way we just hacked the footy forward today it was virtually impossible for the forwards to get into the game. Quiet day but no real fault of his.

He’s like a tackling homing missile

 

[Vander18]

It’s more heart than head but pretty close to saying “just play the guy.”

Have said a few times that he just looks like an AFL footballer. Have narrowed it down a little….he reminds me of a young Taylor Walker

. They share a similar size/physique and a certain balance and power in their movements.

Doesn’t mean anything of course….just that he has “something” that’s worth looking at.

Has had very little continuity this year, unless he has a couple of weeks that forces him inside the side on form, leave him to play VFL, get a full preseason and see where he’s at for 2023.

It's the upright posture and waddle. He moves a bit like Carey used to.

He's certainly got the tools. Needs a few more weeks of conditioning and hopefully some centre bounces.

Mitch Hibberd springs to mind

Can we build a tank on Voss? That beast as a forward and inside mid has me drooling. He has that strut too, which says to me he'll thrive on the pressure and attention of the big time. I think we have a gem. I just thought it was fanboy's man love for him. I can now see it is real!!

If he's able to contribute to stoppages around the ground we have a replacement for what Stringer was 2nd half of last year.

Considering how often Stringer spends consecutive weeks on the sidelines, hopefully Voss gets his shot next year.. even before the end of this year it would be great to see what he can do at the level, before rival clubs come knocking.
